Search for justice continues for thousands displaced in Manipur

Jun 22, 2024 05:17 AM IST

The stories of these internally displaced persons (IDPs), filled with personal loss and resilience, highlight the urgent need for legal and state interventions

Imphal/Bishnupur/Churachandpur Driving along pockmarked roads flanked by vast open fields in Bishnupur, you eventually arrive at a cluster of old government buildings. These structures, once vibrant with the energy of school and college students, now serve a sombre purpose - housing thousands of internally displaced people affected by the ethnic clashes in Manipur over the past year. Signs above doorways display class names and sections, a poignant reminder of what these spaces used to represent – a future, hope and aspiration.
